What will I learn?
This course provides a rapid, practical route to mastering FCC and BCC lattices, unit cell geometry, coordination numbers, and packing factors. You will learn to calculate theoretical density, atomic packing factors, and atoms per unit cell, then relate these to slip systems, critical resolved shear stress, strength, ductility, creep, and elevated-temperature performance, featuring practical examples, tools, and key references for immediate use.
